Innovation that Delivers

Patent no: EP3531353A1
Title: Reducing Fraudulent Data Transfers
Status: Granted
Issued date: Dec 18, 2024

Click to see the patent

I proposed a user controlled security switch for payment credentials. A customer taps their card on a phone. The phone’s NFC reads the card identifier and my app sends a digital message to the payment processor to change the security mode for that card. The processor updates a security control database to move between normal and high security, then applies the chosen checks before forwarding any authorisation to the acquirer. High security can block all transactions or just card not present ones. Normal security allows standard processing. The mode can auto revert after a set time or after a purchase. It fits cleanly into ISO 8583 style flows used by issuers and acquirers. The result lets people wake or sleep their card on demand. It reduces false declines while cutting fraud by putting control in the user’s hands.

Patent no: US11651241B2
Title: System and Method for Specifying Rules for Operational Systems
Status: Granted
Issued date: May 16, 2023

I designed a rules architecture that lets real world systems act on clear, testable logic before they do anything important. I separate three parts. How rules are expressed. How they are validated. How they are executed. A device or service emits a condition. My rules engine matches that condition against versioned policies and data. It then compiles an action plan. For payments this can mean selecting a merchant. Building an authorisation payload. Choosing the acquirer. Enforcing fraud checks and consumer permissions. The engine produces deterministic outcomes and an audit trail. It supports time based expiry and automatic reversion. It also supports pre and post actions like user notification and merchant updates. The design works for IoT and for back office flows. It turns business policy into code the network can trust.

Patent no: US20180260872A1
Title: Systems and Methods for Use in Initiating Payment Account Transactions to Acquirers
Status: Granted
Issued date: May 11, 2021

I proposed an architecture where IoT devices could initiate and complete purchases securely, without relying on manual input at the point of sale. A smart appliance detects a condition, for example a fridge noticing supplies are low. It triggers its local processor to build a purchase request using stored card credentials and merchant preferences. My framework sets out how the device enforces user defined rules, like thresholds, spend limits, or approval requirements, before the request is allowed. The message is then formatted into an ISO style authorisation payload and sent directly to the acquiring bank or payment network. To protect against misuse, I designed mechanisms for encryption, authentication, and session validation so the acquirer can trust the source even though it is not a traditional merchant terminal. The result is an end to end flow where IoT devices act as autonomous but controlled payment clients, opening the door to machine to machine commerce.

Patent no: US20180349426A1
Title: Multi-Network Systems and Methods for Providing Current Biographical Data of a User to Trusted Parties
Status: Granted
Issued date: Mar 24, 2020

 

Click to see the patent

 

I proposed a system where a user can change their personal details once and those updates propagate automatically to issuers, acquirers and merchants. I linked a card profile to a central biographical data store, so changes like address or phone number could be synchronised in real time. My design uses standard ISO style messages to deliver only the updated fields, which reduces bandwidth and avoids duplicate records. Each update is versioned, validated, and distributed through trusted channels, ensuring parties always have the latest data. This improves fraud detection because issuers and merchants can rely on consistent identity information. It also reduces customer friction by removing the need to update details with each organisation separately. The result is a scalable mechanism that keeps the entire payments ecosystem aligned on a single source of truth.

About Us

Yaseen Picture

Yaseen Ali

My interest in technology started young, experimenting with early computers. That curiosity grew into a career in software, leading me to study software engineering and later work at companies such as Boeing, IBM, Mastercard and Intel in Ireland and UK. I worked extensively with complex, large scale systems where analysing issues, improving efficiency and fine tuning performance across complex distributed infrastructures were essential. That experience shaped my ability to deliver robust, scalable solutions in demanding enterprise environments. But I also saw how often projects lost their spark, with process taking over and the passion for building great software fading into routine. I founded Pixels & Crowd to work differently. Here I combine the depth of that enterprise experience with a proactive approach that keeps projects moving forward and the same passion that first drew me to software. AI has played a big role in reigniting that energy, while the innovations I have designed, from enterprise platforms to patented payment systems, reflect a drive to keep rethinking how things can be done better. Today, through Pixels & Crowd, I help clients with full stack development, AI integration and cloud/DevOps always aiming to deliver innovative solutions that go beyond expectations.
